I stumbled across this really practical and well done video on how to make water kefir. Although I have been reading about kefir for years, I hadn’t had an opportunity to make it myself until this year when my sister brought some up to me from a friend who had given her some. This stuff is fantastic. Convenient, quick to make, and very healthy. I love that she uses the ole fashioned cane sugar. It is said to be good for your drains too–who’d have thunk it, right?
Anyway I had to share this video, it is short as well, exactly the amount of time it takes to refresh your kefir gems for the next batch.

One of my many favorite places to eat in Yangon is at an excellent Burmese fresh salad bar on the street right next to Sule Pagoda. It opens in the evenings as the parking spaces empty, spilling off the sidewalk and across the street.
